Recommended Brew: Magic Hat Fat Angel, Magic Hat Brewing Co., South Burlington, Vermont USAStyle: American Pale Ale – Honey in color with creamy ivory head – A lively ale with subtle overtones of citrusy hops that evenly match the sweetness of malt; leaves a satisfying velvet feel on the tongue, followed by a bold, dry finish.

In large skillet, sauté bacon until nearly crispy. To prepare as a garnish, before removing from skillet, twirl each in a curl using a fork, and secure with a toothpick. Allow to cool on absorbent paper towels.

Using same skillet, sauté onion, peppers, celery and garlic in bacon drippings. Add diced ham. Drain fat and set aside.
